The Atlas Harmonia Macrocosmia by Andreas Cellarius (ca. 1596-1665) is a celestial atlas with particularly magnificent copperplate engravings. A total of 21 colored maps show the world according to the models of Claudius #Ptolemaeus, Nicolaus #Copernicus, and Tycho Brahe as well as eight more constellations according to Christian and classical interpretations. Together, they impressively present the viewer with the development of the astronomical world view. For the first time, the Dutchman Johannes Janssonius (1588-1664) published the historical star atlas in 1660 in his Amsterdam publishing house, which was well known for astronomy and cartography.
